NO COAL IN KANSAS.
Dep!orable State Of Affairs in the
GrasshOpper State.

LEAvENWoRTH, KAN, Dec. IL
Deputy United States Marshal Cherries
Currier, who has travelled much about
the western part OF the state during the
last two weeks, says that the condition
of the people, so far as fuel is concerned.
is truly pitiable. Coal is not to be Oh
tanned at any price, and many cases of
actual suffering are reported everywhere
he went. The last cold wave exhausted
what little supply they had. and should
another follow soon, none can estimate
the misery that will ensue. and possibly
death. In a majority of cases where
there is such a scarcity of coal it is
partially the fault of the railroad COM
panieS and the dealers. The latter did
not order coal until late i'll the fall.
Then the mines were not of sufficient
capacity to supply the orders. The rail
road corporations saw that they would
be cut short if all dealers were supplied.
and by one pretext and another failed
to deliver coal to the dealers, but put
such rates upon it that the mines were
compelled to furnish them in advance.
Their supply is not limited, but they
have boarded it up to the detriment
and suffering of thousands of people
who have settled on the prairieS of
Western and Southern Kansas.

Receiver McNulta, of the Wabash, to

IN THE RAILWAY WORLD.
The Northern Pacific Now Has an ALI
Rail Route Clear Through to
San Francisco,
Which Runs By Way of the Oregon &
California and the Central
Pacific Roads.
Thomas F. Cakes and Other Magnates
Indicted for Timber Cutting
in Montana.

There has been no sounding of trnm-
pets about the matter nor any loud talk,
but at the same time the Oregon Il Cali
fornia and the Central Pacific roads
have done big thing for the North
west by uniting these two roads so as to
give direct connection between Port
land, Or, and San Francisco, and, for
that matter between st. Paul and San
Francisco. Objection has always. here
tOfOre, been made to going to Callfor-
mia by way of Portland, that part of
the trip had to be made by steamship.
1t was disagreeable, and took longer
time, and especially was it ObJectlona-
bic to ladies of delicate health. Thus 1t
was that the Northern Pacific. road lost
much travel in consequence of this fact.
This now is wholly obviated. The Ore
gon x California road has been united,
in the extreme northern part of Catifor-
mia. with the Central Pacific, and In
this way San Francisco and Portland
have direct line, This will result in
great advantage to st. Paul and Mime
apolis and also to the whole state.

THE FISHERY COMMISSION.
Little il Anything Liable to Be
ACCOMPLISHED

WASHINGTON, Dee. 12.-It is believed
here that the fishery commission have
given up all hope of formulating gen
eneral treaty, and that the most they
hope to accomplish is an agreement on a
protocol defining anew the meaning of
certain clauses of the treaty of 1918,
such as those relating to bait. TO repairs
anu refreshments. and to the trans
shipment in bond across Canada of
American fish. 1t is understood that
such a protocol. if it is agreed on, will
be merely explanatory of the old treaty.
and will not have to be sent to the sem
ate for action, but if acceptable to the
state department. will provide mode
of action for the future. The long re-
cess. it is understood, was taken at the
instance of Mr.. Chamberlain. who found
it necessary to send his communication
to the British foreign Office by mail and
to await further suggestions by mail, all
of which requires fully three weeks.
The uncertainty of any agreement in
vOlving commercial privileges being
recognized by congress. even if treaty
should be ratified by the senate, has
been made clear to Mr.. Chamberlain by
the status of the reciprocity treaty with
Mexico, which the house of representa-
tives has to date refused TO recognize by
the necessary act to carry it into effect.
An Ottawa special says that the long
adjournment is regarded in Canadian
official circles as total collapse of the
negotiations.
